My BCD536HP suddenly started beeping and resuming scanning at the start of each received transmission. P25 digital decode threshold is set to AUTO. Is is possible that one or more of the sites in my range are down or is it some setting I might have changed unknowlingly?

Thanks again for all help so far!

I don't have a 536HP manual handy but could this mean it is receiving an encrypted transmission?

It won't beep due to encryption. Do you (the OP) have the scanner connected to a PC?
Well, maybe it's not a beep, but a blip from the encrypted audio?

The BCD546Hp is connect via USB to ARC536Pro which can drop out of serial mode, although the scanner does give a message that it's switched to "Mass Storage" what do you think?
Thanks
